5 favourites – June

The month of exams is finally over and my summer holiday started a week ago. I’m really looking forward to July, where I’m going to relax and hang out with friends and family. Even though June was mainly about exams I did get out of my flat a few times which resulted in a couple of my favourites this month.

Bourjois Délice de Poudre Bronzing Powder: I’ve only got one beauty favourite this month due to the fact that I’ve been home studying for my exams most days and therefore I haven’t worn make-up. The days where I did wear make-up I wore products that’s been favourites of mine for a long time, but I did rediscover this Bourjois bronzer (also known as the chocolate bronzer). This bronzer has golden shimmer in it which is why I haven’t worn it during autumn and winter, but it gives your skin such a nice bronzy glow in the summertime.

Love, Rosie (film): I’ve been watching a few new films this month (and by new I mainly mean new to me), and I’m actually going to feature two of them in this post. The first one is ‘Love, Rosie’ which is a romantic comedy/drama about two best friends, Rosie and Alex. I deals with a bunch of realistic issues like friendship, love, dreams (and teenage pregnancy), and I really enjoyed watching it. It made me smile, but it also brought tears to my eyes which usually means that it’s a great film. I’m really looking forward to watch again.

Jurassic World (film): I might have mentioned it before; ‘Jurassic Park’ is one of my two favourite films (the other being ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’), so I was extremely excited for Jurassic World. My dad and I went to see it the day after the premiere, and I loved it. I was worried that I would be disappointed, but I wasn’t, though it still doesn’t beat ‘Jurassic Park’ in my opinion.

danisnotonfire

danisnotonfire (Youtube channel): I’ve discovered a couple of new Youtube channels this month and my favourite is definitely danisnotonfire. I’d come across Dan Howell’s Youtube channel before, but it never really caught attention until a couple of weeks ago. It was actually Dan and his friend and roommate Phil’s (AmazingPhil) gaming channel that made me watch Dan’s (and Phil’s) main channel. He’s just very funny and charming and has a very contagious laugh.

One Direction concert (+ McBusted): Yes, my youngest sister and I went to the One Direction concert in Denmark again this year, and as well as last year McBusted was the warm-up act. It was an absolutely amazing concert and it’s definitely my favourite favourite this month.

Butter gloss

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I was wearing my NYX Butter Gloss for the first time, and it was very comfortable on the lips. I would love to get my hands on more of these glosses.

Pearls and a stegosaurus

Here’s the hair and make-up I wore with this outfit. I was really happy with this look. I’m wearing the beautiful earrings my sister made for me for Christmas last year, and of course my beloved stegosaurus necklace.

This is what my nails have looked like the past week. I wanted to try out this top coat and decided to wear a yellow nail polish underneath. I have to say that I’m a bit disappointed in the top coat. Rimmel nail polishes are some of my favourites, but this top coat is thick and it’s very difficult to get the confettis to stay on the nails, so I applied two coats for more confettis, but I don’t think it helped much. It started to chip rather quickly as well, so this is not my favourite nail polish purchase, but I will probably try to make it work again some other time.

Cranberries

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. As I wrote in yesterday’s post the colour scheme of the outfit allowed me to play around with colourful make-up, and I decided to go all in with different red/cranberry shades, and I love how it turned out.

Simple and classic

Here’s what I wore Thursday May 7. I like how this outfit is simple and classic but with a fun touch in the form of the cute hat. I also like how a black and white (and denim blue) outfit allows you to play around with colourful make-up. I’ll post the make-up look tomorrow.

Top coat and concealer

Pop Art + True Match 1

As you know I haven’t been purchasing a lot of make-up the past couple of months, and I’m dying to shop! Last week I did buy these two little products. The nail polish top coat was on sale and I thought it would look cute on top of a lot of different colours. I’m wearing it right now, so I will tell you more about it in my next nail post. I’m soon running out of my favourite concealer, and due to the fact that I can’t get in Denmark, I thought I would try another one. I’ve been wanting to try the L’Oréal True Match concealer for a while, because there’s a shade light enough for my skin. It’s a very liquidy concealer and the coverage is not the best in my opinion, so I won’t be using it to cover up spots, but I do quite like it as an under eye concealer.
